Report on frequencies of consumer purchases

Qualitative research report: analysis interviews aimed mainly at identifying the main positive and negative drivers of fish/seafood consumption (for the chosen species)

A report on qualitative studies of identification of positive or negative motives, perceptions, associations, attitudes towards fish/seafood consumption (with a focus on the chosen species: salmon, trout, seabass/seabream, herring and cod). The study and questionnaire design will be led by MATIS in close cooperation with the other partners.

Report on the impacts of increased fish consumption on economic, health and environmental attributes

A report based on a study that focuses on elasticities estimates and tests the impacts of recommendations on increased fish consumption. Using nutritional (benefits related to fish consumption) and environmental data (e.g. carbon foot print), we will calculate the economic, health and environmental impacts of such a consumption increase taking into account the substitutions induced within the diet, and between fish species.

Report on population assessment and valuation of non-market effects of aquaculture and capture fisheries activities.

This deliverable will be a report on results from using a combination of revealed and stated preference methods to monetize the most important effects, values will be derived for key non-market effects of two of the selected species, farmed salmon and (wild) cod. A discrete choice experiment (DCE, a stated preferences method) will be carried out in selected countries to compare attitudes in an urban area without fisheries/ aquaculture activities and a remote area with such an activity

Report on the economic performance of selected European and Vietnamese farmed species

Report on costs & benefits of compliance with voluntary market-based labelling & certification schemes.

This delivery will adress the current use and potential of voluntary market-based labelling & certification schemes for different channel actors. It will also examine interactions, cost/ benefits and areas of overlap between mandatory and major voluntary certification and recommendation schemes (e.g. MSC, GlobalGAP, ASC, BAP, SFP, Greenpeace red-list), and identify harmonization mechanisms/ equivalence criteria for voluntary and mandatory schemes (e.g. Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI)) with the aim of reducing costs to producers and improving overall compliance

Creating Shared Value for the European Seafood Market

This deliverable is a report on how the project will effectively engage the stakeholders (IRG, other relevant stakeholder, and particularly SMEs). Synergies with the main European Fisheries and Aquaculture events will be boosted, trough matching up with conferences and major trade exhibitions (e.g. European Maritime Days, Seafood Expo, AquaNor, Fish International).

Choice modelling report on innovative features and the consumers’ willingness to pay

Report on choice modeling techniques, multi-attribute valuation techniques, that elicit values for multiple attributes by asking respondents to rate, rank or choose a set of attributes (levels). In particular, choice experiments are valuation techniques where respondents have to make trade-offs and indicate their preferred option out of a set of alternatives.

PrimeFish Data Management Plan

PrimeFish will participate in the H2020 Open Research Data Pilot, and this entails three requirements. Firstly, the collected research data should be deposited in data repository. Secondly, the project will have to take measures to enable third parties to access, mine, exploit, reproduce and disseminate this research data. Finally, a Data Management Plan (DMP) has to be developed.
